Painful Poems

looks so painful

this looks so painful

Beautiful doesn't mean Safe

The Sun is pretty–Yes ,we know,
It makes the sky and flowers glow.
But look too long, and you will find,
It's beauty scars. It's strikes you blind. 

We're taught to chase what shines the most,
To the love ones who shine like ghosts.
But not all gold is made to keep ,
some glitters loud and cuts too deep.

Volcanic Eruption Of The Soul

Words both good or bad are very powerful,
bad words said are like a volcanic eruption to the soul.
Why do family and friends hurt each other,
do they not understand what it does to the other person ~
volcanic eruption of the soul takes place.
These painful words and actions are like hot lava,
hot lava running out from ones

The beak has broken, and I settle on the shore of painful thoughts

The beak has broken, and I settle on the shore of painful thoughts,
while the sea sews salt around a shell of feathers—
a cradle carved from a time long vanished, a vapor dream of the past.
I touch it gently—the wings contract like secrets hidden in evening shadows—
fragile bruises, a poem of memories passed through rains of

Painful Reveal

Your recent reveal was a sad steal
of all I knew.
My memory now bleeds severely
making days blue.
My world shattered and scattered
across the floor.
Something dying is out loud crying
aching and sore.
Your truth so grilling it is piercing
the past I saw.
Now that I am bruised by your news
I am plain raw.

Feeling a fragile head from words said
I’m torn

Painful paradox

Heavily guarded heart, 
wearily navigating life.
Like a fugitive,
invariably primed,
for that final day,
to be discovered,
apprehended, 
imprisoned eternally. 
Snapping shut like a bear trap,
only able to be opened,  
by the strongest of love.
The kind of which,
only transpire in dreams.
If you dare, 
to let your heart free.
The most painful paradox.

Painful Silence

Dreams
Dying
Silently
Money means pain
No degree, just debts
Painful knee, no one cares
Bleed money to take a class
I have a bad knee, no help comes
Got no transportation and no job
The college has become my undoing

Painful Memories

Every day I wake up,
And every day I remember
The way you left me with no warning
Fleeing like a dog off its leash
It was my 13th birthday
I suppose that’s when fear settled in,
abandonment followed 
Filling every pore of my body
Though this wasn’t the first time,
Definitely wouldn’t be the last
I only wish I knew,
What made you leave?
Was

I was that girl, who was afraid of questions,

But life taught me to become the answer.

In the house where voices were suppressed,

There I made my identity with silence.

I broke down, but did not fall apart,

She embraced every pain, but did not complain to anyone.

When my own people trampled my hopes,

I bowed

desires a painful train

syrup spit in my ear
teaching me how to slide
and 
she the hip hop record
out the san francisco's
out of the san francisco
hurdled dirty
exchange rates 
mastering the filthy turn
broken horn memories
adjacent his new coats
he had and hadn't given

how he wound down towns
spendings is spring
weathers are drying deserts
behind her eyes
so depressing sad
how about some ice cubing
and she would

Painful Life

To lie up in this bed and be so weak
Daydreaming to the world and can't even speak
Everyone thinks I'm strong, but they don't have a clue. 
I'm fighting for my life with everything to lose.  
People think I'm so strong, but I just smile to keep from crying
Shedding my pain to the side, but

Today, even the hills seem blue and other painful verses

Today, even the hills seem blue.
Unhappiness is just happiness ~
being torn to shreds by you.
Bartleby:  "I would prefer not to."
Lawyer:  "But Bartleby, you've got to.
Pull yourself together, somehow,
and make a copy for me. Right now.
It's your sad lot to."

Someone stomped on my heart with their feet.

PAINFUL WORLD

Even in a dark world, you think their is light
Every time I open my eyes, nothing but pain in my sight

People are hurting, bodies are deteriorating, minds going crazy
Every morning, I wake up and ask God why does this have to be

Babies are getting kidnapped, and being taken from their homes
Women losing their life because

Three painful memories

Three painful memories caused by no bodies.
1. Loss of friendship with many broken promises.
2. Disappointed with negative and harsh language.
3. Loved someone with heart of stone.
I shall move on to live my life.
I should pay more attention,
When you mentioned in the messages
"I break off relatsionships quickly,
I break them easily
and I usually make no effort to

Life as means

Life is a full of feelings and thinkings,
This word may be same for all..
But indicates different meanings;
To get life from God and to do
something for living as a life.
Life is life for all, but that life 
Comes to know after done something big
Which gives success....
Life is a sinking ship. A fresh dawn 
is just another
